Please don't do this here. Comments like this degrade the reading experience on HN. This is why you are getting downvoted. The HN crowd generally prefers more substantive comments and discourages low effort humor.
- glaberficken 8y agoPlease read the last paragraph in the HN guidelines page: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

- dang 8y agoHumor's fine but the bar is high. Low-quality humor grows like crabgrass or kudzu and soon takes over. People are vigilant about not letting that happen here, not because they don't like fun, but because they've seen it happen elsewhere on the internet. Most people overestimate how funny their comments are. scott_s said it best: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7609289 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7609289
